I've heard that there is one being released, if that's true, when is it being released?

Talking of this DVD actually, they showed what would appear to be an extract from it on that abysmal 'Speed Sunday' and worringly it didn't seem to have any race footage. While, Prost, Hill and Berger were talking about Donington '93 all that we saw was still photo's of the MP4/8 in the wet. I really hope this isn't the case as it will make it pretty much worthless to me. Senna was the worlds greatest ever racing driver - I want footage of him racing!

No race footage? That's absolutely absurd.

They might as well show some footage of Rex Hunt's Fishing Adventures as race footage then, would be more interesting than some pics...

I didn't realise that I made any mistakes in that post, I did it in a hurry, but I just wanted to confirm what I heard. Well i've seen an Advert for it in Autosport or the Grandprix legends catalogue included, thanks anyway...
I'd imagine with it being a DVD, it'll have technical details of him Championship winning cars and some race footage, but only time will tell. |

you can find out details of the DVD at www.senna.tv its official release date was April 22nd its a 2cd set and looks interesting allthough the above statement about being no race footage is worrying.

I got the DVD yesterday. It's ok, but a little disappointing - the rumours about the lack of race footage are unfortunately true.
The main new section on the first disc - "Right to Win" is a 52 min documentary, and I think the only footage is from a Williams test in 83, and another Williams test in 94. I was really hoping for some great race footage (ie: Donington 93, qualifying at Adelaide in the Lotus, etc) and sadly it is missing. I can only assume that the makers of the DVD were unwilling to pay Bernie enough to use race footage. Not trying to sell the DVD short or anything, the second disc has the "Racing is in My Blood" documentary, which most have probably seen already, and there are a couple of nice little extras. |

Hmmm - that really does sound rather disappointing.
Has anyone got the "Senna and McLaren" video from many years back - that's quite good. But the best is the full series of "Team McLaren", as broadcast on TV, regarding the 1993 season. Excellent stuff. I'm pleased to say I have it on taoe and watch it every 3-4 months....... |

If only they'd gotten the best bits of race footage for the tribute DVD.
If they had they could name their price..... Anyone know of a DVD that has the stuff that's missing from the tribute (ie; good Senna race footage) ? |

I got the tape 'A Star Named Senna', it's pretty good.
Can't remember if there was much race footage on it though, i think i'll be watching it again tonight. |

A star named Ayrton Senna is a superb tribute and contains loads of great race footage. Looks like I'll be giving this DVD a miss then unfortunately. They really have missed a trick with this one.
I've got the above mentioned tape as well as "racing is in my blood" so I'll content myself with those I think. Incidently, this week I finally got hold of the much delayed "The Life of Senna" book by Tom Rubython. I've only read the first couple of chapters but it looks to like it's going to be a superb read, and at some 700 pages in length, hugely detailed. |

I ordered this off of Amazon but got as note today saying it was out of stock and they didn't know when it would be available again. Any suggestions where I might be able to order at similar on-line price for 'from stock' delivery?

Judging by the comments about the new DVD, I'm glad I'ce got "A Star Named Ayrton Senna" and "Racing is in My Blood" the videos. I'll probably get the DVDs though. |

There was a clip of this DVD on Eurosport the other day. Not a single moment of footage (bar a five second onboard clip of Senna lapping Estoril in the Williams pre-season), although the interviews were interesting. Nothing I haven't heard or read before however. I'll give this one a miss!

It really does seem to be an almost unforgiveable missed opportunity to give the millions of Senna fans worldwide some decent racing footage - after all, we didn't become fans of the guy because of his great interviews, did we.....?

I've only got "A star named.....". It's enjoyable enough, although the density of foreign interviews can be irritating. Despite this, it's a masterpiece.

Sculpture by Peter Close. Copies may well be available at the Donnington Collection in the near future. I believe that Tom Wheatcroft asked Pete to do this especially for the collection.
